The recent ‘rediscovery’ of fragments of the alphabetical tables of the first Cartulary of the Collegiate Church of St Julian of Auvergne, compiled at the beginning of the 12th century, would seem to have introduced a new milestone into the general understanding of the history of indexing. This article looks briefly at the chronology of the use of alphabetical order in the West and the appearance of the first indexes; analyses the distinctive features of the Brivadois fragments; and finally,...

On the past few years, an important legal debate has been raging, the full effects of which many lawyers have not yet felt. I am referring to the taxonomy debate and, specifically, the attempts by the late Professor Peter Birks and (the mainly academic) supporters and advocates of his and similar views to impose a coherent and logical taxonomy upon private (common) law. Much more attention should be paid to sound taxonomy, it is argued. This great project has been little noticed outside the...

Web-search queries are typically short and ambiguous. To classify these queries into certain target categories is a difficult but important problem. In this article, we present a new technique called query enrichment, which takes a short query and maps it to intermediate objects. Based on the collected intermediate objects, the query is then mapped to target categories. To build the necessary mapping functions, we use an ensemble of search engines to produce an enrichment of the queries. Our...

"This essay examines the ambition to taxonomize law and the different methods a legal taxonomer might employ. Two possibilities predominate. The first is a reason-based taxonomy that classifies legal rules and decisions according to “legal principles” thought to justify them. Reason-based taxonomy of this type offers courts a set of high-level decisional rules, drawn from legal data, for use in deciding new cases and evaluating precedents. The second possibility is a formal taxonomy that...

Browsing big legal databases has become a part of daily work activity in an almost every modern law o ce. Legal regulations change more often than it was in the past and to re- main up-to-date, one must use electronic media collections for help. The problem is that most popular databases take queries in formal query languages (e.g. SQL), which can be di cult for the casual database user. This project tries to determine, how the lawyers can be helped by providing natural language interface to...

Le texte débute en juxtaposant les expressions « No...

Legal information is often accessible via portal web sites. Legal documents typically combine structured and unstructured information, the former being tagged with markup languages such as XML (Extensible Markup Language). Current information retrieval research takes into account the structured information content of documents when computing the relevance ranking. Such an approach is very promising for the retrieval of legal documents. This is illustrated with two retrieval models specifically designed for the retrieval of legislation.
